The Hearse Song
(source: "The Worm Song and Other Tasty Tunes, Janet Wilson,
1993.)
- Don't ever laugh when the hearse goes by
- Or you may be the next to die
- Ah-ooo! Ah-ooo!
They'll wrap you up in a clean white sheet
- And put you down about six feet deep
- Ah-oo! Ah-ooo!
And all goes well for about a week
- And then your coffin begins to leak
- Ah-ooo! Ah-ooo!
The worms crawl in, the worms crawl out
- The worms play pinochle on your snout
- Ah-ooo! Ah-ooo!
They eat your eyes, they eat your nose
- They eat the jelly between your toes
- Ah-ooo! Ah-ooo!
They eat your clothes, they eat your hat
- They crawl in skinny, then they crawl out fat
- Ah-ooo! Ah-ooo!
Then you turn disgustingly green
- Your skin as slimy as whipping cream
- Ah-ooo! Ah-ooo!
So next time you see the hearse go by
- Watch out!
- You may be the next (pause)
- To (pause)
- Die!
